The Anaheim Ducks announced today that the National Hockey League (NHL) club has signed 2007 first-round pick Logan MacMillan to a three-year entry-level contract. Per club policy, financial terms were not disclosed.

MacMillan, 19 (7/5/89), scored 15-26=41 points with 77 penalty minutes (PIM) in 46 games with Halifax of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL) last season. MacMillan also appeared in 15 playoff games for the Mooseheads, recording 3-10=13 points with 20 PIM while helping lead his team to the QMJHL Semifinals for the second consecutive season.
